Mindfulness Meditation Done Differently
from Infinite Bliss ~ Daily Meditations · host Mat Robinson ~ The Gregarious Hermit
Mindfulness meditation typically focuses on the breathing. Why? Because breathing continues to happen whether we pay it any attention or not. It spans conscious and subconscious awareness.But then again, so does everything else in our physical existence. For this mindfulness meditation were going to focus on a different part of our physical existence. We are going to meditate on the sensation caused by gently squeezing our thumb and forefinger together.Just like the bullseye on a dartboard, it's a tiny target and the squeezing gives us a sensation to focus on while the rest of our body is completely relaxed.During the meditation, each time we notice that our mind has wandered and taken our awareness with it, we squeeze our fingers a little tighter and then return to watching.Just keep doing that until you're squeezing tightly and then start to back off the pressure. All we want to do is change the pressure and change the sensation each time we notice our mind has wandered and we lost focus.So enjoy this mindfulness meditation and wait til the end of the video so you can find out how I use this mindfulness technique while driving to become the silent witness.-If you're serious about silencing your mind, check out my little book, "Understanding Happiness ~ Pocket Companion Workbook". Available on Amazon at https://a.co/d/fomLnY9Or you can support me with coffee. Yes, hermits drink coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/thegregarioushermitOr if you'd like to join me live each day - https://thegregarioushermit.com/clubThe Infinite Bliss Meditation Club is a great place to learn meditation with other friendly and like minded people.We meet weekday mornings at 7:00am and evenings at 7:00pm.Morning meditation sessions are about 10-15 minutes. Short and to the point. Aimed at people with busy lives that don't have time to chit chat and gossip, but who need focus and a clear mind to power through their busy day.Evening meditations are a little more relaxed and slow paced, where the focus is on releasing all the stress from the day so we can allow our bodies to heal and stop ourselves worrying about tomorrow. It's a great reset.But the greatest power of the meditation club is that you meet at a consistent time every day and are a little more accountable. So that helps you progress quickly with meditation and get over many of the frustrations much more easily.The Meditation Club has a modest fee, but that gets you front row seats to the live meditation as well as being part of the post meditation discussion. You also get access to my classes and workshops. But the biggest thing is that you are supporting me and making it possible for me to continue doing this.#InfiniteBliss #InfiniteBlissMeditation #InnerPeace #Meditation #GuidedMeditation #Mindfulness
